Is there any other Latin word like status quo which are very common in English articles?
That'd be better if you could set a sentence as example :) Thank you for your time!I mean "words" :p

Yes, many. For example:
Persona non grata: somebody who is not welcome.
After he broke the window, John was persona non grata at the Richardson house.
Per se: as such
He's not a lawyer per se, but he knows a lot about law.

I know a few that aren't so common but one that's used a bit more often is 'vice versa'. It means 'the other way around'.
He helps me with work, and vice versa. - probably a bad example but it means he helps the speaker out, and the speaker also helps him out.

ones that come to mind immediately are "per se" and "de facto". "Sine qua non" is used, but not as common.

Some that come up:
i.e. (id est) - that is
per se - in itself
persona non grata - unwelcomed person
tabula rasa - clean slate
